Our son has gone to Little Red since he was 11-months-old; he is now four and preparing for school. I cannot praise the staff and nursery enough. They are amazing. The staff are professional yet personable. They take great interest in the children and their development. My son loves them; he knows the
staff in all the rooms, there is consistency in the rooms so he knows the rules. He has learnt so much; he has visited local libraries, he has watched animals hatch then grow, and developed social skills beyond his years. All the staff are so helpful and accommodating. Even during the lockdown, they couldn't have been more helpful in offering provision for the key worker children. I will be sorry to see my son leave; I know he is safe and loved when at the nursery: this peace of mind is priceless. Thank you to everyone at Little Red.

My son has been here since he was 6 months old and is now in pre-school. My daughter has just started. I am very happy with the care my son has had at Little Red Day Nursery, he is very happy there.


The staff nurture and encourage. They have varied days with child led learning. They listen to my

feelings and they seem to genuinely care about my son.

My little girl loves coming to the nursery. The workers in the baby room are amazing and so attentive to her needs. I love the way nearly all the workers work in all groups now with my girl and make a huge fuss of her. Amazing nursery with amazing staff. Couldn't be more grateful for the amazing care
they provide xxx

A wonderful nursery. My son started at 9 months and quickly settled into the baby room. He came on leaps and bounds in skills and confidence. They plan and complete so many activities that my son loved.
He moved up into Waddler Room but this was such a smooth transition, simply because of the caring
and hardworking staff.
We always felt well informed. Unfortunately, we moved out of the area and had to move nurseries.
Would definitely recommend this nursery.

Little Red is a fab nursery, my baby has been there since he was 6 months old. The nursery have been really flexible as myself and my partner work odd hours!! My boy seems really happy to be there and has developed a lot with the kindness and attention of all the staff. Would highly recommend this nursery
to everyone.

Review from Raith R (Father of Child) published on 8 September 2015 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Little Red is a fantastic nursery having looked after both my girls very well!! The staff are amazing and the early education that is taught is a perfect start to school years, I also like the fingerprint security not only to enter the building but to enter each room too! The outside space there is
also fantastic!
My eldest (now at school) still talks fondly of her days at Little Red and my youngest, who was very clingy, has been brought out of her shell with her confidence growing by the day! That is all thanks to the staff bonding with her, gaining her trust and showing her that it isn't that scary to speak out! I will always recommend Little Red and wouldn't hesitate sending another child in the future!


If I had any criticism it would only be that the staff can do my girls hair better than I can!!!

Fabulous nursery. Wonderful caring staff that I am 100% happy to leave my boy with. I have recommended this nursery to a number of people and their children now attend to! He is very happy to go every morning and loves it whilst he is there. I will be very sad when he leaves!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.921)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.921) out of 10 for Little Red Day Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 39 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 38 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.921 for Little Red Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (436 Excellents x 5) + (25 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 467 Ratings = 4.921
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Little Red Day Nursery is based on 38 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 130 number of registered child places is 26, which has been reached with 38 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
